We will get the committee started, ladies and gentlemen. Please take your seats.
We want to welcome our wonderful guests and to thank them very much for their patience. You never know when the bells are going to ring again. Not to worry, but I have to tell you that you have to talk fast, because each of you has a chance to speak for 10 minutes, as individuals. Dr. Hudson, from Biosential Inc., that's for you as well. Then we'll go to questions and answers.
We are very excited about your being here because this committee has done one of the most exciting studies we've ever done. A lot of the committee members feel that way. It is a study of technological innovation.
Without further ado, as individuals, we'll begin with Dr. Tyrrell, professor and director of the Li Ka Shing Institute of Virology, University of Alberta. How exciting.
